Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Menida formosa sighting in Bengaluru on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 360th most-seen of the 477 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February, May and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Menida formosa in Bengaluru on a given day, against under 5% in March–April, June–October and December–January, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Menida formosa sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
3rd of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Menida formosa sightings, Bengaluru ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Kolkata (India, about 10%) and Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Menida formosa is recorded against all the insects logged in Bengaluru (7 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
